PANHANDLE RAILWAY STEAL.
The Most Important Arrest Yet to be
Made.

PITTsBURG, April 15.-It appears that the
most important arrest in the Panhandle
case is yet to be made. former con-
ductor of the road, named Connolly, is
supposed to have been the leader Of the
gang and to have gotten away with an i'm
mense amount of plunder. Somehow or
other he got wind sometime ago that the
raid would be made and skipped. He is
now in Kansas, but an officer has been sent
after him. and it is expected that he will
be srrested and brought back to this city
next week.
Between thirty and thirty-fve of the
arrested railroaders will waive hearing
and will give bonds to await the action of
the Grand Jury. The amount of bail will
be fixed by Alderman Gripp at from 81 900
down, according to the number OF charges
lodged against each prisoner. These will
take their continuance, and their attorneys
will seek to have the cases OF each taken
up by the Grand Jury in order to get into
the present term of the Criminal Court.
1t is understood that the principal defense
OF many will be to establish an alibi.
In speaking of the robbery to-day, Spe-
cial Agent Rue said they would be able to

INJURED BY THE DROUGHT.
Steady Deterioration in the Condition of
Winter Wheat.

CHICAGO, April 1.-THE following sum-
mary of crop reports Will be published by
the Farmers Review this week; The cor.
respondents from nearly every county in
Kansas, Missouri, Illinois, Indiana and
Ohio report that there has been no ade-
quate relief from the drought and that
high and dry winds are causing a steady
deterioration in the condition of winter
wheat. A certain percentage of damage
has already occurred, yet Notwithstanding
the impending great injury which much
longer prolongation of the drought would
effect the generality Of the reports from
the wheat districts continue to be favor
able. The pastures and the meadows in
the States of Illinois, Indiana and Ohio are
already suffering very seriously, however,
owing to the lack of rain. In Edgar and
Hamilton counties considerable damage
to growing winter wheat is reported, while
the remaining Illinois counties reporting
this week, while stating that the average
condition is below that of last year, still
report the crop in fair shape. Reports
from drought injury are made from Mar
tin, Ohio and Wells counties in Indiana,
and in Carroll, CleTmont, Licking and Lo-
gan counties in Ohio. The reports from
Eansas all note the pressing need Of rain,
and serious damage by chinch bugs is made
from Harvey and Lobelle counties in that
State. In Barton and Morris counties, OF
Kansas, the crop is reported to have been
seriously injured by drought. The reports
from Missouri, while indicating the need
ofrsin. continue to make favorable show
ing for the crop.
Spring wheat seeding has been nearly
completed in Illinois and Iowa, and is in
progress in Minnesota, Dakota and Mich
iean. The ground is reported to be in fs-
vorable condition in Iowa, Dakota and
Minnesota for the recep ton of seed.

Five Men Killed and several Wounded by
the Bursting of a Water Tank.

PALATINE, ILL.,, April 17.-While viewing
the wreck of freight train on the Chicago
and Northwestern Railroad near this city
to-day SIX persons were killed by the
bursting of large water tank. Tae acci-
dent occurred at ; O'Clock this afternoon,
and it is supposed that the collision of the
freight trains IN the immediate vicinity in
the morning had Jared the immense tank,
containing 100, 600 gallons of water, and
loosened or cracked the hoops, which
gave way while large crowd of
country people were standing ina
mediately under the structure. When it
collapsed and fell it buried the people un-
der the wreckage and water. Two boys and
four men were killed outright, and two
other men were fatally and
number seriously injured. The names
of the killed were: Edward
Wenke, William Darms, George Meyer
William Meyer and Fred Boeder. The in
jured are John Asmust and Charles Storms.
Only five persons were killed outright, in
stead of six, as at first reported. The
Meyers were brothers, and both quite
youthful. Storms also is very young. The

surprisingly Satisfactory accounts from
Commercial Centers.
New YORK, April 15.-R. G. Dunk Co.,
in their weekly review of trade, say: 'Con-
sidering the embarrassment from uncer-
tainty as to freights, accounts of trade are
surprisingly satisfactory. 1t is the almost
universal testimony that retail trade is IN
usually large. No embarrassment appears
in collections, except where real estate
availaole means, or, in some To-
calitles, where bad roads still block
business, but in most cases improvement is
reported. The remarkable activity is
clearly connected with the exceedingly
plentiful supply OF money, which is more
abundant where some need was previously

phis, money was never so abundant be-
fore.n The increase in actual circulation
of money from July l to April l has been

holds prices up, though the fever has
abated at Nashville. How far such de-
mands will prevent the return Of money
usual at this season to commercial centers
is yet in doubt. But no fear is felt of
money going abroad, March exports of
products having been surprisingly large.
Recent large purchases of stocks on foreign
account are reported, but with somewhat
suspicious ostentation, and foreign ex-
change remains stronger than it would
naturally be If money were coming this
way to pay for many securities.
Prices did not change greatly during the
week, though wheat is lower and corn q
little higher, with oats, pork, hogs and
sugar unchanged. Coffee has risen sc
and cotton Lice. Lard is a shade stronger,
and beef stiffens a little on account of
freight rates, but the enormous production
and the embarrassment in shipping prod
ucts account for decline of SIC in iron.
In dry goods the situation is not altered,
the uncertainty of rates affecting distant
trace, but cottons are strong, aud wool has
become more steady many holders refus-
ing to sell the better grades at current
prices. Territory woods are pres sed for sale
and are weak. An improving trade is
noticed in hides, leather and boots and
shoes.
The business failures during the last
seven days number for the United States,
146; for Canada, %; total, 175, against 223

of last year. Business casualties are on the
decline in every section OF the country.

We know, also" said he, where an I'M
mense amount of plunder is stored in this
city which We have not yet disturbed, but
upon we could place our hands at any mo-
ment. We know of goods buried under the
ground, by whom buried and when and
who will come and dig them up. The
goods are still buried, because the thieves
who are still at large, intimidated by the
arrest of others, fear to take them away"
If any more arrests are to be made the
victims will at least be allowed to rest
until Monday. Some who are guilty and
have thus far escaped arrest may think this
a great chance for escape. But this is inn
possible, since every suspect is under close
surveillance.
The detectives and counsel for the prose-
cution are still busy preparing the evidence
already secured for the hearing next Mon
day, and it is not likely that any more ar
rests will be made at present.

K. OF L. PRINCIPLES.
Grand Master Workman Powderly's Views
on the Political Issues of the Day.

PHILADELPHIA, April 15.-To .morrows
issue of the Journal of United Labor will
contain long article by Mr.. Powderly.
Referring to the intentions OF the Knights
Of Labor, Mr.. Powderly will say: knights
get issues TO advocate. They have decla-
ration of principles, any one OF which
carried out would materially advance the
welfare of the human family. Take this
fourth ection of our platform for instance,
That line public lands, the heritage of the
people, be reserved for actual settlers, not
another acre for railroads or
speculators; and that all lands now
held for speculative purposes be taxed
to their full value. The latter clause
especially would materially lessen the tax
rate in nearly every municipality in the
country by making it Improbable to
build. "A graduated income tax which
is the thirteenth article of our faith,
would more equitably divide the burdens
of taxations. Tne doing away with banks
of issue is a third important plank-a ques
tiOD which will soon have to be met, for
the rapid payment of Government bonds
will induce the issues of the illogical and
expensive national bank currency to ask
Congressional sanction for some other
means of keeping hold of this source OF in
come; and last but not least is the matter
o! equal importance to free government,
state ownership of railroads, telegraph and
the like of the means of transporting intel
ligence, passengers and freight. On this
point the Knights speak with no uncertain
sound"

Boot and Shoe Cutters of New England
Form An.IndependentU Union.
BosToN, April 1S.-A new labor move
ment has been started in New England
which will to some extent weaken the
knights of Labor organization. A large
number of the boot and shoe cutters of
New England have formed an independent
union. 1t is intended by the projectors of
the movement TO give the union a scope
similar TO that of the Lasters Protective
Union, but more effort will be made to ad-
just all difficulties by arbitration rather
than by strikes. Several meetings have
been held at which delegates were elected
and instructed to meet on A pril 16 and
perfect the organization, and also to devise
some mode of extending the union, and to
issue suitable resolutions to boot and shoe
cutters that they might be induced to Join.
The Executive Board, serving IN accord
ance with their instructions, held meet
ing Saturday at the American House.
After the transaction of routine business
resolutions were adopted which set forth
the intent and purpose of the Organization.
The resolutions state that the objects of
this union is more effectually to protect
the interests of all boot and shoe cutters in
the New England States and to secure a
uniform rate of wages according to the
amount and quality of work done. They
SISO sldIe tudI SIIlkeS ana lOCK-OuCS are
wrong in principle aud tend to work harm,
and are not for the interests of either en-
ployers Or employees, and that they should
not be resorted to until all other measures
fail. A committee is soon to be appointed
to thoroughly organize every city and town
in New England, and from appearances it
is thought by members of the Executive
Board that nearly every cutter will have
joined before the end of the year. Over
5000 boot and shoe cutter of New Ed
gland were represented at Meeting.

the home rule party. They say that even
on the low ground of expediency Mr.. Par.
nell would be the last man in the world to
write letter containing such damning ad-
missions. They contend therefore, that all
the reason IN the case proves the letter to
be a forgery on the face of il. pointing for
proof to the contents of the document, es-
pecially to the writer's warning the person
to whom the letter purported to be written
not to disclose the address, while no ad
dress is given. The fact that the signature
is the only part of the letter in Mr.. Par
DelPs writing is by itself, the home rulers
argue, a proof that the whole thing is a
fraud, as according to them, while it would
be difficult to obtain enough specimens of
Mr.. ParnelI's handwriting to enable a
forger to initiate to the extent necessary to
successfully palm off a whole letter as his,
it is not at all difficult to obtain his sig
nature.
Mr.. Parnell, the agent of the Associated
Press is authorized to state, will categoric-
ally deny that he wrote the letter. Mr..
Parnell will make mis- denial in the House
of Commons. The editor OF the Times will
be summoned to the bar CT the House of
Commons TO explain the authorship Of the
letter.
The Times has exposed special bulletins
calling attention to the letter, and has sent
extra supplies to the railway news agents
ard booK-stalls. The lobby OF the House
Of Commons was crowded in the afternoon
with members eagerly discussing the
alleged Parnell letter
The Globe, commenting on the letter,
says: Until the horrible accusation that
Mr.. Parnell wrote the letter is proved we
shall discredit it,
The Pail Mall Gazette says: "Until the
authenticity of the letter shall be abso-
lutely proved there VIII be no need to dis
cuss its contents"
The st. James Gazette says: The letter
is so grave a document that it will not do
TO regard il as genuine until Mr.. Parnell
shall be heard from concerning it."
